• Spotlight on the Drake •

7 January 2009

Now available in packs, Drakes are the smaller, more social cousins of the mighty dragons. Some soldiers have dismissed these creatures as puny or weak; these are generally the same unwary soldiers soon fated to be charred and/or dismembered by a pack of vicious flying lizards.

The drake is available for play in patch 1.45.3, and is a 3CP neutral flying unit. Yep, that's right! These diminutive airborne monsters will gladly devour the face of your enemy, regardless of your faction. Drakes are also known for their tenacity and ferocity when facing units such as daemons, dragons, and elementals; they have +50% AR, +50% DR, and 100% damage against all specials units.

This week only, the uncommon Drake will be dropping as a common, to help players fill their units faster.

The drake is the last unit that will be added to the current booster set. Future units will be released as part of a separate expansion pack, which will contain over 100 cards, including brand-spankin' new hero cards, new faction-specific troops, tasty-delicious spells, and cards not previously available in boosters (like the armored behemoth). Tune in next week for an exclusive preview of the expansion.
